I have been a Full Professor in School of Software, Shanghai Jiao Tong University since December 2011. I lead the Institute of Parallel and Distributed Systems and work with members to improve the performance and dependability of computer systems, including machine learning systems. I received a Bachelor degree and a Ph.D degree (Advisor: Prof. Binyu Zang) in computer science, both from Fudan University. I am an ACM Fellow and an IEEE Fellow. I am currently the chair of ACM SIGOPS.

I am currently looking for self-motivated students with good background on systems related area. Drop me an E-mail if you have interests to work with me.

Recent textbook on operating systems Modern Operating Systems: Principles and Implementation (现代操作系统：原理与实现) (2020 the most favorite IT books by 51CTO and Best Undergraduate Textbook Award by SJTU).

I am the inaugural technical steering committee chair of the OpenHarmony projects. Please consider contributing to OpenHarmony.

I am seeking solutions to improving the scalability and security of operating systems systems and distributed systems, using approaches like hardware-software co-design, formal methods as well as machine learning. My research takes a practical perspective, and I have a particular interest in conducting systems research that has industry impact. By focusing on practical system design and implementation, my work has led to the development of innovative systems and technologies that are now deployed across billions of devices.
